Introduction
1. Halong Bay
Halong Bay is located in the Gulf of Tonkin in the administrative location of Quang Ninh Province. Halong Bay comprises 1969 islands big and small, 989 of which have been given typical names describing the shape of island or legendary story about the island.
The bay itself covers an area of 434 km2, including 775 limestone and rocky islands with various shapes and assumingly planned location by Creator, forming a triangle with island of Dau Go (Driftwood Grotto) to the west, the Ba Ham Lake (Three Shelter Lake) to the south, and the island of Cong Tay to the east.
Halong Bay resembles a geographic work of art completed after million of years by geological changes. While discovering the bay, the feeling of relax, tranquilizing atmosphere and of being getting lost in the labyrinth overwhelms your soul & mind. More amazingly, limestone islands with unusual rock shapes, and grottoes and caves with marvelous stalactites and stalagmites makes you feel that you were living in the fairy world. There is a Man's head Island, which is similar to a man standing and looking towards to the mainland. Dragon Island looks like a dragon ascending from the turquoise water. There are also the islands of the Dog, the Incense Burner, and the Pair of Roosters, which all resemble to the shapes described.
The Island that visitors can not skip in our boat trip is Titov Island, the name of former Soviet Union hero who flew to the outer space in the last century.
At the core of the islands, there are marvelous and mysterious grottoes and caves such as Thien Cung (Heavenly Palace Grotto), Dau Go (Driftwood Grotto), Sung Sot (Surprise Grotto) and Tam Cung (Three Palace Grotto).
It has been proven by archeologists that Halong was one of the first cradles of human existence in the area at such archeological sites as Dong Mang, Xich Tho, Soi Nhu, and Thoi Gieng. Many of pre-historical relics were found in the area. It is a region of highly-concentrated biological diversity with ecosystems of salt water-flooded forests, coral reef, and tropical forest, the shelter and dwelling of thousands of flora and fauna.
With all geological, geographical, historical and cultural values, Halong Bay was officially recognized twice by UNESCO as the World's Natural Heritage in 1994 and in 2000.
